Kraftwerk good soft cell bad seti ---------------- ---------------- Well done DGB - the was the name of the album - Tainted Love was a single from it I think.

seti Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 OK I forgot about this but Mr.Shatner was on late night TV the other night promoting his new album......Wonder if it will be available in SACD format? William Shatner's New Album More than 35 years after the release of his debut solo album, William Shatner teams up with Ben Folds to create Has Been, a surprisingly pop-driven, lyrically potent collection of songs written by the duo. With the exception of Trying, co-written by Folds and novelist Nick Hornby (High Fidelity, About A Boy), Real by Brad Paisley, and Pulps Common People, Shatner proves to be a witty and self-deprecating poet, while Folds talent for crafting the perfect pop melody has never been more evident. Heard about this via Sam and Fuzzy. Listening to the samples and interviews on Shatners site, the album seems really genuine. I feel really good about this; it fits. Makes me happy to see Shatner pull this off, at the right time, and in a good manner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets not forget Air Supply and the other bands of their genre from the early 80's ah wait no lets forget them : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the same group I'm convinced. They were marketed with different names to sell more albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 I might catch some flack for this one but I never understood why Boston and Rush had such appeal. Oh as far as Prince goes I actually heard some previously unreleased tracks on his Crystal Ball box set that I liked and I was in shock when I figured out who it was. My reaction was wait no please no I can't like prince. blast but it was nothing like anything I had heard from him....ug...excuses.....

picky Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 The Flying Lizards: 'Money (That's what I want)'. Eeesch! They were bad enough! But, MRS. MILLER was the ABSOLUTE WORST! She makes William Hung sound good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up enjoying the music from all three of those bands *ducks for cover*. When I listen to them today I still enjoy a few tunes from each, but not nearly as many as I once did. I guess I was just a groupthink(grouplisten?) fanboy! lol domo arey gotto, Mister Roboto domo..domo lol Yikes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnalOg Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 "We're going to party like its 1999", it all makes sense now. Prince was good stuff if you were in the club dancing scenes, which I was, cause thats were the hot chicks hung out. I don't think I would put Styx, in the same catagory as Journey & REO, for the times that was good stuff, although these days I find myself passing them up in the mix.

CaptnBob Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 When the radio station got rid of most of the lps, I latched on to a few. My favorites - Eddie Albert Sings (I forget the title, but you get the idea) Joel Grey - "Black Sheep Boy" (a whole 'nother spin on the Cream's "White Room.") Mae West singing "Twist and Shout" and one whose name I have forgotten but whose cover proudly proclaims "Every instrument has its own microphone feeding transistorized electronics."

Great band, great album, horribly bright, horrible shame. I know Bob Dylan is an acquired taste, but I found his LP "Blood On The Tracks" to be really, really not so good.

I'm Sailing Away and The Grand Illusion are the only songs that come to mind. What's the 3rd band I was thinking of? I swear they're all identical.

"Blood on the Tracks" is one of my wife's favorite LPs and I have to admit I think it is a really, REALLY fine collection of songs. "Tangled up in Blue" and "You're a Big Girl Now" and "Idiot Wind" come to mind. They are freaking GREAT songs both lyrically and musically I think. As to Bob Dylan's voice--I like to think of it as another instrument in the mix--certianly not PRETTY, but I like it alot--really evocative and I love the way he twists it all around the melody and beat. I think he's great--not my everyday cup of meat, but brilliant. But t he COOLEST thing about "Blood on the Tracks" is that Dylan had the whole LP "in the can" --recorded with fine studio musicians and DELIVERED to Columbia records. Then at the last minute after listening to the tapes he decided that the album sounded sterile and he went back into the studio with some local unkown musicians in Minnesota and rerecorded the entire LP in about a day and half and released that version instead.

Marvel Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 I went to highschool with Gary Richrath (REO), and he is a great guitarist. I didn't like a lot of the music they did. I'e always been somewhat a fan of Dylan too. How about Hall and Oates? Marvel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
